Lakewood Crossing Park in Cypress – Visiting Houston’s Parks, One Week at a Time

by Jill Jarvis 2 Comments

Location: 11502 Cypresswood, Houston, TX 77070
Appropriate Age: Any age!

Each week we review a new Houston park. Although most of our reviews are in the middle of the city, this one takes us out to Cypresswood Road in Northwest Houston. Lakewood Crossing Park is located near grandma’s house and is must-do when we visit.

This park is a little forest, sunk down from the busy road. Under tall trees there are trails, a couple play structures, fitness stations and a little skate park.

You can see from the pictures of my (extra) little kids, we’ve been going here for years. My city slickers think it is a great outdoor adventure to play under the trees.

They run between the larger play structure, to the smaller one, sit on the built-in seats and then run some more.

The equipment is new and the park is well maintained. There is unique structers, like the rockwalls and bridges, that make it even more fun to visit.

The park is not very visible from the street, and wooded, making me a little worried about security. (You know that I like to be in urban areas with lots of eyes for safety.) I always take another adult with me, but also like the security cameras used to deter crime.

I always mention safety in my park posts, so don’t let this comment keep you from the park. It’s really great fun! Have you been? Be sure to tell us about it!

jill-jarvis-bigkidsmallcity-circle-300 Welcome!  JillBJarvis.com is the go-to blog for things to do in Houston with kids!  It is upbeat and dedicated to making our big city feel small.   START HERE!    

On this website you will find a full list of Houston weekly events, things to do around the city, travel ideas and resources for parents.

I know just what it’s like to be overwhelmed by work, life and family. I spent a lot of years traveling for work, missing big milestones for my kids and feeling bad about everything.

I started this website to make a list of all the events happening around Houston and then pick one to enjoy with my kids. And instead of thinking of all the things I was missing, I started to enjoy the things we were doing together.

If you are a parent that is feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could be doing in Houston… please just use our weekly lists and daily posts as suggestions. Pick one thing to do with your family and intentionally ignore the rest!
